BrooksBurner Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Someone clue me in on why Nashville feels the need to hamstring their cap for multiple years? Why do they feel the need to free up all this cap space via salary dumps and buyouts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Heaven Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Anyone who thinks that the current cap situation with teams is good for the league is out of their minds (Bettman). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 I think it's time to take a look at how MLB does it. Granted the NHL doesn't have the TV contracts MLB does, there's gotta be a better way. ...and Bettman is still ugly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the whole point is financial parity then I don’t get why a luxury tax doesn’t work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichieNextel305 Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Yeah I mean this is just a joke. I know we bitch about our stable of contracts, but the reality is every team has them. There needs to be breathing room somewhere and he refuses to see that. Anyway, my bet is Duchene ends up on the Islanders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always hear, "...The game has evolved"...why hasn't the economics of the league followed suit??? Question for the ugly commissioner, I know...but really?

Cash or Czech Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 I’d move Goodrow to give Duchene a ‘show me’ contract in a heartbeat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long live the King Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 A show me contract? He has 65 goals and 142 points in his last 149 games. I don't know what Trotz's plan is unless he thinks he can land some big UFAs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dude Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Is Yamamoto worth taking a flyer on? I think I remember people were high on him in his draft year. I don't recall him being all that bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he does, it will be the equivilent of Bailey and a 2026 2nd Round pick for Duchene, with Duchene at a smaller cap hit than Bailey. Shoot, that's quite a trade.
